Tristessa - 1991 Gish version
Original Lyrics
Pledge your faith
I hardly breathe
Struggle to return
Blurry mind
So hypnotized
Fast enough to move
Wonder where you are
Tristessa
Soul takes soul as eye take eye
I will wait for you
What you believe you’ll wish to receive
Won’t believe in who, you
Hang on to your life
Tristessa
I love you too
Surely I do
I love you too
Surely I do
Surely I do
Surely I do
No, no, no
Did you ever wake up
And find yourself alone
Did you ever wake up far from home
What you believe you’ll wish to receive
Won’t believe in who
Tristessa

Jesus loves his babies
Outside in the sunshine
I don't mind, no I don't mind
Jesus loves his babies
Even when they're out of line
I don't mind, no I don't mind
I'm fine
Jesus loves his crazies
Keepin' pace with her rhyme
I don't mind, no I don't mind
Jesus loves his babies
Outside in the

Lyrics: live 1991/11/22
Pledge your faith
I hardly breathe
Struggle to return
Blurry mind
So hypnotized
Fast enough to move
Wonder where you are
Tristessa
Soul takes soul as eye take eye
I will wait for you
What you believe you'll wish to receive
Won't believe in who, you
Hang on to your life
Tristessa
I love you too
Surely I do
I love you too
Surely I do
Surely I do
Surely I do
No, no, no
Did you ever wake up
And find yourself alone
Did you ever wake up far from home
What you believe you'll wish to receive
Won't believe in who
Tristessa

Lyrics: Smart Studio 1990/??/?? version
Jesus loves his babies
Outside in the sunshine
I don't mind, no I don't mind
Jesus loves his babies
Even when they're out of line
I don't mind, no I don't mind
I'm fine
Jesus loves his crazies
Keepin' pace with her rhyme
I don't mind, no I don't mind
Jesus loves his babies
Outside in the
Outside in the sun/shine (doubletracked and overlapping)
Sunshine
Over him
